Stop telling people they don’t have a ‘real job’ if they don’t work 9 to 5. Being a freelance writer is a real job, Lying in a pond waiting to hand Excalibur to the rightful kind is a real job. Your work matters.

Yeah, I did watch the Netflix stuff, I even contributed to the first Kickstarter. But it was just meh for the most part. I do enjoy Rifftrax somewhat, but this... it'll be nice to get back a little bit of that uncomplicated fun from when I was 15/16.
